    Located in a sunny valley approximately 30 miles north of San Diego, Escondido is a great place to call home in California. This small suburban town is a prime commuter location, but it also has plenty to offer in its own right. Escondido boasts beautiful natural surroundings, including lakes and walking trails, and a sunny climate so renters can enjoy fun outdoor activities year-round. Although the cost of living is slightly higher than the national average, Escondido remains more affordable than other large cities in Southern California.

    Renting in Escondido, CA

    Escondido comprises more than 30 neighborhoods offering housing for a wide range of budgets. Although the city is one of the oldest in San Diego County, it experienced its most significant growth in the past two decades. A little over half of the available properties were built between the 1970s and 1980s, but some buildings in the Historic downtown area are older. Like many areas in California, the town is predominantly car-dependent, and most of the streets do not have sidewalks. If you are looking for a more walkable location, the best neighborhoods to rent in are Central Escondido, Midway and Kit Carson. Landlords typically require a security deposit with a maximum amount equivalent to up to two times the rent for an unfurnished apartment and up to three times the amount of the rent in a furnished apartment unless otherwise specified in the lease agreement.
